Unlocked a core memory with this one, I feel like I only got passed this level a handful of times. Do you get the Turtle Van after this stage?

I can't remember because I only got passed it a few times as well. I've still never beaten the game.

I've been playing Hollow Knight for an hour here or there lately. Once i beat this f***ing arena lvl 3 I'm never doing it again ever. JFC it's hard! I get to the part where there are spikes on the ground all the enemies are up in the air. Those f***ing little dart bugs can rot in hell.

I've gone back as an adult and this one is still difficult. Probably not the most difficult but it was probably the first time I ever became super frustrated with a game.

That underwater level is incredibly easy compared to the last two sections of the game.

That game had an absurdly irregular difficulty curve. Area 1 was too easy, 2 was harder due to the water, 3 and 4 are quite doable, and 5 and 6 are absolute grade A number one BULLSHIT.

The bosses in Sonic Superstars. The bosses are so slow to do their cycles that you often have to wait 30+ seconds between opportunities to damage them. Combine this with one-hit deaths in later stages and a lack of checkpoints and you have an incredibly frustrating experience. Just look at the video above, a successful attempt at this boss takes almost 10 minutes and half of it is just waiting for a chance to attack. There are also points in this boss fight where you have to stand in a certain point on the screen with very little warning else you die instantly and have to redo another 5+ minutes of the same boring fight to get another chance.

I liked the stages and the game overall but the bosses are among the worst I've ever seen.
